Goddamn kidney!
8 years ago
As you guys saw a while ago, I'm slowly returning to art. Or I was. On 1h30am (last Thursday~Friday, March 2nd~3rd), I had to be rushed to hospital emergency, after trying to "tank" the pain of yet another kidney stone episode for around 2 hours and taking like 5 different painkiller medications. Turns out the stone wasn't the problem: the stoneS were. Two of them ganged up and got stuck, giving me a very very painful night (to the point I received morphine to be able to sleep a bit). While I'm back at home, that lovely cable that stays attached inside after surgery...is still there. And makes every trip to the bathroom an exercise in pain endurance.
On top of that, I got a nasty infection on most of the back and top of my throat, including the uvula (that dangling piece of flesh on the back-top of the throat), which is now almost 3 times its usual length and size. The result is that even drinking water causes pain (eating is worse, though) and sitting still for too long causes an ever stronger effect of nausea. You know how putting your finger in your throat tends to cause gag reflex? I'm like that when sitting. It's not fun. -.-
On the bright side, this should all be temporary and the medication, antibiotics and such should improve things. Also been to an otorhinolaringologist (what a mouthful) and he believes the infection might have been from the tube in my mouth when receiving anesthesia before surgery. Somehow. Needless to say, I haven't been able to art at all. Instead I'm downloading some art tutorials/books/videos and such and having fun hacking my 3DS (since I can lie down mostly fine).
So yeah...hope to be back soon. My mind is asploding with ideas. Especially TG-comic ideas. @.@
